FAQs: Auto Locksmith St Margarets
Can you make a car key without the original?
Yes. We can create and program a new key from your vehicle using specialist decoding tools, OBD2 diagnostics, and immobiliser programming. For some models we may use EEPROM techniques. Proof of ownership is required.
How quickly can you get to St Margarets?
We operate a responsive, mobile service across TW1. We dispatch efficiently and keep you updated, but we don’t quote hard arrival times. If it’s urgent, please call and we’ll prioritise you.
Will unlocking my car damage it?
We use non-destructive entry methods wherever possible. If an exception is necessary due to damaged locks or manufacturer design, we’ll explain options and get your approval first.
Do you work with smart/proximity keys and push-to-start vehicles?
Absolutely. We handle smart key programming, proximity key replacement, and push-to-start systems for many brands, including newer 2024/2025 models.
My key fob isn’t responding—do I need a new key?
Not always. Sometimes a simple battery replacement or re-synchronisation solves it. If the fob is faulty, we offer repair or replacement and full programming.
